{Road Trip} Day Four - Vegas By Day and a Surprise at Night

L was first to wake in the city that never sleeps, and Hubby took her over to explore the Bellagio, and more importantly the beautiful ceiling sculpture, "Fiori Di Como", by artist, Dale Chuhily, and the Conservatory & Botanical Gardens (the water show wasn't running yet)...





L loved the ceiling and remembers Chihuly's multiple story sculpture from the Children's Museum Indianapolis, where we visited last summer...





After reuniting with our early risers, we headed to the top of the Stratosphere for a view like no other...






Yeah, don't be getting any ideas, girlie...




Hubby had a conference call for his class to finish up, so after that we headed over to Circus, Circus to watch a (free) show...




and grab lunch before making our way down the strip to our last two Las Vegas stops...

First, the world famous sign, of course...




and last, the Pinball Hall of Fame for a couple of games...





We left town early afternoon and drove on to Anaheim, CA for the one stop on this family road trip that Hubby didn't have a clue about...






He once said to me, once upon a time, "You know, on our road trips, I'd love to try to catch a baseball game sometime if the schedule works out, or at least work it out so B and I can go."

You ask, and you shall receive...  He was definitely surprised...




Big thanks to Grandma (my mother) for the ticket $ loan (so he'd have no idea) and to Uncle B (Hubby's brother) for the fun greetings on the jumbotron!

After the game, we carried our sleepy crew to the hotel room (we got upgraded to a suite yet again!) where we sprang the news of what was probably one of the worst kept secrets ever ~ trying on various "Minnie" outfits in the days leading up to a trip to California (where they know the West Coast Mouse resides) didn't help...

WE'RE GOING TO DISNEYLAND!!!

Well, at least M looks pretty surprised, right???


{Breakfast with Minnie Mouse?  Say what?!?!?}




Heigh-ho, heigh-ho, it's off to bed we go...
